Phases 1 and 2 – Method of Convergent Linguistic Approaches for CDA with NVIVO assistance: a proposal from linguistic-discursive analysis

Summary/Abstract: This work presents a proposal for conducting research that contributes concrete linguistic-discursive data to support social reflections and critical interpretations. Its paradigm is interpretative, and its theoretical framework is Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA). Consequently, the proposal is grounded in a predominantly inductive and qualitative methodology with the incorporation of data triangulation. Essentially, it involves the combination of two software tools to examine situations of social conflict, violations of rights, and exclusion through and within the associated discourses, as of interest to CDA. The software tools used are NVivo and Excel. NVivo is used for the initial stage. In this regard, it is considered to assist in the analysis. Excel has been adapted for linguistic-discursive purposes to implement the Convergent Linguistic Approaches Method (CLAM), which constitutes the second stage. CLAM begins from the Synchronic-Diachronic Method for the Linguistic Analysis of Texts and develops it further. In order to achieve this, CLAM integrates different discursive approaches distributed across three phases with their respective analytical operations. This work emphasises the first and second phases. The proposal [NVivo + CLAM] is illustrated through the results of a corpus study that is part of research on rights and justice, aiming to demonstrate: 1) its ability to work with extensive corpora (within the context of case studies), and 2) the way it makes possible deep and detailed qualitative analysis. Finally, to conclude, the paper synthesises the advantages, disadvantages, and future challenges.
